Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of wind power generation, in particular to a cooling device, a stator and a wind power generator. Background technique

[0002] The copper loss and iron loss generated during the operation of the wind turbine will cause the temperature rise of the components of the wind turbine. Excessive temperature rise will directly affect the life of the wind turbine and even cause it to fail to operate normally. Among the various parts of the motor, the winding insulation is most obviously affected by the temperature rise. Every 10°C increase in the winding insulation temperature will reduce the life of the winding insulation by about half. Exceeding the limit range, more seriously, may also cause complete breakdown of insulation and damage to the motor. For permanent magnet wind turbines, the temperature of the permanent magnets also needs to be controlled within a certain limit to prevent permanent degradation of motor perform...
